-m/--lpath doesn't work?

[karlp]

I have my lua files in "lualib" rather than "src" (for mathching some other tools) and have tried the following...

busted --lpath="./lualib/?.lua;./lualib/?/?.lua"
and
busted -m "./lualib/?.lua;./lualib/?/?.lua"

but in both cases, the tests are found, but is not set properly, it still looks in src/.

An error occurred while loading a test::spec/remake.utils_spec.lua:3: module 'remake.utils' not found:
no field package.preload['remake.utils']
no file 'src/remake/utils.lua'
no file 'src/remake/utils/remake/utils.lua'
no file 'src/remake/utils/init.lua'
no file './remake/utils.lua'

no file './remake.so'
no file '/usr/lib64/lua/5.1/remake.so'
no file '/usr/lib64/lua/5.1/loadall.so'

The file it's trying to find is in lualib/remake/utils.lua. Adding a symlink "src" for lualib works fine, but isn't really something I want to do.
Busted version 1.4, installed via luarocks.

Tieske's pull request should have fixed that, try running luarocks make on latest source and see if that fixes it!

$ busted -m lualib
lua: error loading module 'busted.output.utf_terminal' from file 'lualib':
cannot read lualib: Is a directory
stack traceback:

/usr/bin/busted_bootstrap:131: in main chunk
[C]: ?

Doesn't seem to have fixed it for me. I've got a latest git pull, and I can see Tieske's fix, and I've rerun "luarocks make" in my checkout.

busted -m lualib/?.lua

Never mind. I'm not used to lua's idea of having to specify file patterns as well as paths

[Tieske]

thatᷰs because Lua is ansi C and that does not have the notion of filepaths.

I'll make another issue to add doc examples.
